I can tell you at least 4 days a week I can find, poop on the sidewalks, poop bags left in the parking lot or in the bushes, and after a rain it smells from all the urine. The mulch areas are dug up from the dogs, scratching after going to the toilet. The area is usually congested with cars and carts from the dog walkers. Unless you are the man that drives his cart along the fence line and has his dog follow behind, this dog owner rides all over the "green area" in his cart. Why?? Because there isn't a sign that says: NO carts. (so I have heard).
If you need to take your dog in the car to a place to exercise and toilet, try the dog park or your own yard and save the common green space. No one loves your dog like you do. As for all you people that would never, come watch some of your dog lovers in action, if they don't see someone watching the poop remains. Especially when the dogs are off leash or on the 10 foot leash device.
I completely understand your frustration. It frustrates me to no end to see dog poop and cigarette butts and empty water bottles and plain old trash in the common areas. I see this daily. And if I see trash on the walkway, I pick it up. Just because there are some complete @##holes out there doesn't mean the rest of us should be painted with the same brush. Most people are considerate and responsible. A very few are not. This applies to dog owners, cigarette smokers, drinkers from water bottles, Kleenex users, etc.
